It wasn't until I hit the floor, that I realized you had come after me. Your hands wrapped around my neck. I hit the ground hard, and now I am running. From the thoughts and the fears. I hear your breath in the wind, your voice in the sea, I see your face in the crowd. In my dreams, In the clouds, In my cereal milk. I run away from my thoughts unkind, and then I remember the pain. The tighter you squeezed the less I breathed. When you let go, I felt I was free, but even today the chains you've left me in. It's time to break free, and get away from your greed, look now, I am gently freed! |

Ringo- Yes to that ouch. I guess now is when picking up the pieces and putting them together and hopefully regardless of what happens and what happened, there aren't any missing pieces. |

Bravo! Kellie, time will weaken the dark chains of a violence scared heart. Enjoy your freedom! Although the world is full of suffering , it is also full of the over coming of it. Helen Keller |

Hmmm. Hope all is well. I'm liking your new style, by the way. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Thank You for the comments... What new style do you speak of? I don't see anything out of place or changed? |
